Remarks
Indicates that an annotated field or method is part of the Serializable serialization mechanism defined by the <cite>Java Object Serialization Specification</cite>. This annotation type is intended to allow compile-time checking of serialization-related declarations, analogous to the checking enabled by the java.lang.Override
annotation type to validate method overriding. Serializable
classes are encouraged to use @Serial
annotations to help a compiler catch mis-declared serialization-related fields and methods, mis-declarations that may otherwise be difficult to detect.
Specifically, annotations of this type should be applied to serialization-related methods and fields in classes declared to be Serializable
. The five serialization-related methods are:
<ul> <li>private void writeObject(java.io.ObjectOutputStream stream) throws IOException
<li>private void readObject(java.io.ObjectInputStream stream) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException
<li>private void readObjectNoData() throws ObjectStreamException
<li>ANY-ACCESS-MODIFIERObject writeReplace() throws ObjectStreamException
<li>ANY-ACCESS-MODIFIERObject readResolve() throws ObjectStreamException
</ul>
The two serialization-related fields are:
<ul> <li>private static final ObjectStreamField[] serialPersistentFields
<li>private static final long serialVersionUID
</ul>
Compilers are encouraged to validate that a method or field marked with a @Serial
annotation is one of the defined serialization-related methods or fields declared in a meaningful context and issue a warning if that is not the case.
It is a semantic error to apply this annotation to other fields or methods, including: <ul> <li>fields or methods in a class that is not Serializable
<li>fields or methods of the proper structural declaration, but in a type where they are ineffectual. For example, enum
types are defined to have a serialVersionUID
of 0L
so a serialVersionUID
field declared in an enum
type is ignored. The five serialization-related methods identified above are likewise ignored for an enum
type.
<li>in a class that is Externalizable
: <ul> <li> method declarations of writeObject
, readObject
, and readObjectNoData
<li>a field declaration for serialPersistentFields
</ul>
While the Externalizable
interface extends Serializable
, the three methods and one field above are <em>not</em> used for externalizable classes.
</ul>
Note that serialization mechanism accesses its designated fields and methods reflectively and those fields and methods may appear otherwise unused in a Serializable
class.
